Lahat ng Kabanata ng Destiny: The Alpha Heir: Kabanata 141 - Kabanata 150

After dropping me off at Marcos’s place, Damian headed to the Arches condo—the same one where I’d lived most of my life. The next day, I had to get up early to start recording. I only had a few days to get it done.“Lisa in the house, people!” Jay shouted as soon as he saw me walk into the room where they were already rehearsing.“Oh my God! What happened to your arm?” Hannah asked, sounding worried when she noticed the sling.“Just a little accident, nothing major. I won’t be able to play guitar with you guys, though. But I’ll be watching closely to make sure everything lines up with my inspiration.”“If you’re not playing, then who is?” Noah asked. All three of them looked at me expectantly. I stepped outside and took Nicolas’s hand.“Come on, let me introduce you to them,” I said gently. I’d never seen Nicolas so nervous in my life.“I don’t know if I can do this, Lisa. Your invitation is amazing, but I’m just an average musician.”“No, you’re wrong. I know you’ve got this because

It was just past midnight when the Alpha dropped me off at home. I was still stunned by the news that the Gamma had died—almost a week after being hospitalized. He’d gone through multiple emergency surgeries and held on as long as he could. Maybe that’s why William hadn’t come after me like he usually did—he was probably too busy comforting his girlfriend.No! Lisa flat-out refused to accept that. She still clung to the idea of that stupid mate of ours.Think about it. He was probably at the hospital with his girlfriend when he got the report about me and lost it. Where else would they have managed to sedate him that fast? If he really cared about us, he would’ve come after us like he always did—especially knowing we were with Damian. Let it go, Lisa!After the danger he put us in, after everything he did to us, I honestly couldn’t understand how part of me still wanted him so badly. If I talked to a therapist about my life—leaving out the whole mate curse and wolf business—they’d pro

I was exhausted—not from the waiting, but from the sheer number of guys who’d come up asking for my contact info. I realized a lot of unmated wolves were just trying to have as much fun as they could before ending up tied to someone. Poor girls destined to end up with them! And the worst part? I was one of those girls, since William had quite the reputation as a ladies' man.Something that used to make me anxious was now a source of relief: the announcement was about to start. I couldn’t wait for it to be over so I could finally leave. Not wanting to get up, I kept my eyes on one of the nearby screens—there were several set up throughout the streets.At the start of the speech, the Alpha called his children to stand beside him. Caroline shyly hid behind her father, peeking at the crowd. From the look in her eyes, I could tell she was searching for someone—and I couldn’t help but wonder if it was me.The speech followed the usual tradition, with thanks to everyone present and to those

The sky looked like it was about to collapse. The wind shaking the leaves grew stronger by the second. A storm was coming—and it wasn’t nearly as bad as the one brewing inside my chest. I tried to bear the weight of my choices, tried to believe there was a better way, that I just needed to hold on a little longer… just a little longer… and a little longer still.Now I was stuck in this fate of rejection and pain. I ran—ran like hell—as fast as my legs could carry me. The wind kept picking up, and even though it was reckless as hell to run into the forest with a storm on the way, I had to find my own damn note of hope.My heart led me there—to the waterfall where I’d so often found comfort in the company of the water, the same place where a mysterious man once held me, consoled me on one of the darkest, loneliest nights of my life. His energy was already there, blanketing the water like he’d been waiting for me—like always. And that made me believe maybe he needed me just as much as I

I woke up with the dim twilight shining straight into my eyes. My stomach growled, desperately begging for something to eat. When I moved slightly, pain shot through every inch of my body. Carefully, I managed to slip out of the man’s arms—he had fallen asleep right next to me. I glanced at him and thought about everything that had happened between us, about the way I gave myself to him when I barely even knew who he was.My rational side told me this was the craziest thing I’d ever done, but my heart said the exact opposite. So many times I’d wondered if my wolf would ever accept someone other than my fated mate—or if I could ever feel happy and complete with another man. But when she accepted him, I didn’t hesitate. I went all in, and every feeling I gave was returned with such tenderness and sincerity. That unique feeling—I had no doubt it was real love. That’s why I knew I wouldn’t regret what I’d done.“So big and imposing… yet sleeps like a baby,” I whispered, smiling like an id
